About Me

Mum likes reading, decorating, shopping with the girls, and Starbucks. She also feels funny writing in the 3rd person.
Papa (also known as Sparky) is currently looking at me with a blank stare having asked him to add something about himself to the blog.
(Now he wants to say something) The only thing he loves more in life than music and Coke is his wife and kids. (Awww...) :)
Little Lotte is a genius on the computer and makes me fall over laughing every day with her quick wit. She loves computers and animals.
Sweet Pea abandoned her family and moved to Phoenix for work and is now married as of 2/28/06. She is beautiful and smart and the most nurturing person I know. She gave me the greatest gift ever when she made me a grandmother. I am the proud Mum Mum to Andrew Christopher. There are no words to describe the joy of having a grandson!

Lima Beans

Sweet Pea is all excited about hosting Thanksgiving this year as a newlywed and who am I to rain on the parade of the newly married love birds? My only contribution is to bring the lima beans. Only Sparky knows how to make them so he will have to work when we get to Phoenix in the morning.

We plan to attend a movie in the evening and then drive to Sedona on Friday. We shop and visit a lovely cathedral built right into the red rocks. We then attend a festival of lights at night in VERY COLD weather - I have to remember to pack a coat, scarf, and gloves. We will eat at our favorite restaurant there - Red Planet. On Saturday we are kidnapping - I mean bringing Sweet Pea back to Tucson for the U of A vs. Az State (SCUM DEVILS) game. We have attended many U of Az games but never the big rivalry. We are really looking forward to this one!

Sunday we release Sweet Pea back into the wild that is the big city of Phoenix and I will clean house and shop for a turkey because really, who are we kidding? Do you honestly think I would not cook a turkey so we can have leftovers all week?
